  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • As of 2010 nearly 3 million Americans aged 12 or older reported using an illicit drug for the first time within the past 12 months, which is an average of about 8,100 initiates per day.
  • Alcohol increases secretion of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, causing the nerves to send a message to the brain that the stomachs contents are hurting the body and must be expelled through vomiting.
  • An opium overdose can be deadly, and delayed treatment could possibly result in a series of long term health problems, such as circulatory problems and cardiovascular damage.
  • During the 1980s it was thought that GHB could possibly enhance the bodys production of growth hormone, and as a result it flew off the shelves as a diet supplement during this time.
  • The shift in the types of drugs that are reported to be responsible for the large majority of drug overdoses has also changed the demographics of those individuals that are dying from overdoses.

Detoxification

Detoxification is commonly the 1st step in getting off drugs. It enables a person to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are various types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A typical mistake that many addicts make is to assume that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is hardly ever the case. All detox does is get an individual through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is often recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to learn the root of why somebody was using drugs in the first place.
